Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

Our inspector AJ is great at bringing back photos for the homeowner and, in turn, the marketing department. This crawlspace is not unique. Most of the crawlspaces we see look like this or worse. (I'd venture to bet that most of the crawlspaces in the Pacific Northwest look like this.) 

The customer had mold in his crawl space and water. Our crew went in and removed all the debris and mold from the crawl space. We installed a TripleSafe sump pump and a SaniDry Sedona so he never has to worry about water and mold again. 

This customer called because he had a musty smell in his house that he couldn't get to go away. Upon further investigating, they discovered it was originating from beneath the house. So they gave us a call to have one of our inspectors come out and take a look at what was going on. Our inspector found sagging old fiberglass insulation with a torn vapor barrier. Water and debris had been getting in the crawlspace causing mud, dirt, and moisture damage to the posts and beams. The musty smell was moving up thru the house. We recommended doing a crawlspace encapsulation to prevent future water problems from happening. We cleaned out the crawlspace and sealed the vents, the crew then laid down our Terrablock that is a matting underneath the CleanSpace that completely seals in the crawlspace. 

To collect ground water we installed a perforated pipe in a silt sock. This then has TerraBlock insulation and a CleanSpace vapor barrier installed over it. 

This homeowner had complaints about the odor coming from their crawl space when it rained. Their living spaces would emit a musty damp odor that was concerning. To get their crawl space healthy they wanted to have a full encapsulation installed. This includes a full drain system, TripleSafe sump pump, insulation consisting of TerraBlock, and Spray Foam, as well as our CleanSpace vapor barrier and SaniDry Dehumidifier. Now this space can remain dry all year round and the homeowners don't need to worry about foul odors and water issues.
